30:1  A psalm; a dedication song for the house. Of David. I will exalt you, Lord, because you have lifted me up and have not allowed my enemies to triumph over me.
30:2  Lord my God, I cried to you for help, and you healed me.
30:3  Lord, you brought me up from Sheol; you spared me from among those going down to the Pit.
30:4  Sing to the Lord, you his faithful ones, and praise his holy name.
30:5  For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor, a lifetime. Weeping may stay overnight, but there is joy in the morning.
30:6  When I was secure, I said, “I will never be shaken.”
30:7  Lord, when you showed your favor, you made me stand like a strong mountain; when you hid your face, I was terrified.
30:8  Lord, I called to you; I sought favor from my Lord:
30:9  “What gain is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your truth?
30:10  Lord, listen and be gracious to me; Lord, be my helper.”
30:11  You turned my lament into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
30:12  so that I can sing to you and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.
